David Warner compares Cameron Green to himself
Australian opener David Warner won the Player of the Match trophy for his brilliant half-century in the match. Warner was at his very best, and he played some eye-pleasing shots during his innings. After winning the trophy, Warner said that the bowlers executed the plans really well, and it was a fantastic performance.
Warner also predicted a brilliant future for the young all-rounder Cameron Green. He said that Green is a bit like him, and he will create a big impact in the future. Green got the opportunity to open in the absence of Warner in the India T20Is and now he has opened with Warner a couple of times.
“It was a fantastic all-round performance. Well executed by the bowlers, they bowled a nice line and length,” David Warner said after winning the Player of the Match trophy to the broadcaster.
“I had a good little break and looking forward to going to Perth. A little bit like myself when I first started, he’s (Green) going to have a big impact in the future.”
Despite some brilliant performances, Aaron Finch has confirmed that Green won’t be added to the T20 World Cup squad if there is no injury concerns for the current players.
